PySlurm:

The slurm-web package require pyslurm to be provided by a package called python-pyslurm. In the debian release where this procedure was tested that package didn't exist, so it had to be provided by a dummy package.

Then create a dummy package using equivs. First, install equivs if your system doesn't have it:

aptitude install equivs

then create a configuration file for our new package

equivs-control python-pyslurm

. Now, we should edit the configuration file for the package to provide python-pyslurm. The package will provide nothing in reality, but the package management system will be fooled into thinking that the package is present. The actual functionality is going to be provided by the pyslurm pip package. The important options are presented below:

File: nano python-pyslurm
